A clip of Donald Trump sharing what he thinks Barron's 'best skill is' has gone viral amid calls growing for his youngest son to be drafted into the US military.
On 28 February, the US and Israel unleashed joint strikes on Iran, Trump claiming the attack was launched to ensure 'that Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon'.
The very same day, a website was created called 'DraftBarronTrump.com'.
The website states: "America is strong because its leaders are strong. President Trump proves that every day. Naturally, his son Barron is more than ready to defend the country his father so boldly commands. Service is honor. Strength is inherited. Dog Bless Barron."

'Dedicated to honoring the strongest and bravest voices in war,' the website states 'when power is projected abroad, it is only right that strength exists at home'.
"If you’re looking for proven genes, inherited courage, and unquestionable resolve, look no further than the Trump family. Leadership starts somewhere," it resolves.
But what exactly does Barron bring to the table?
Well, the POTUS didn't waste a second to answer when asked what his youngest son's 'best skill is'.
In a video re-shared online by Hot_Takes10, when asked about his son's best skill, Trump replied: "Maybe technology, he can look at a computer. I try turning it off, I turn off his laptop and I go back five minutes later and he's got his laptop.
"And I say, 'How did you do that?' He says, 'None of your business, Dad.'
"He's got an unbelievable aptitude in technology."
Hot Takes added: "Have we thought about having Barron Trump just hack Iran?"
And another TikToker commented: "Ummmm….anyone older than eight knows how to turn on a laptop. And oh, if you accidentally unplug it and plug it back in, it also turns back on."
Trump's comments about his son follow 'DraftBarronTrump.com' detailing similar 'testimonials'.
One from 'Donald J. Trump,' reads: "People come up to me, with tears in their eyes, and they say, ‘Sir, you’re the strongest. Send Barron off to war’ I’ve always been strong. Very strong. Stronger than anyone expected. Some say the strongest ever. And strength matters. Believe me."
"This moment is really about Barron, okay? Always has been. He represents strength, courage, and service. I’ll be honoring that sacrifice in my own way, mainly by talking about it from a safe distance," a quote from 'Donald Trump JR,' states.
And a statement from 'Eric Trump' adds: "People always say I’m stupid, which is totally unfair, because I understand a lot about pancakes. Pancakes are complex. You’ve got batter, heat, timing. If you rush it, you ruin everything. I think about pancakes a lot. Mostly pancakes."
